Lyrics

Best Friend (Live)

[Chorys]

Tell me why, why

Why do you treat me so bad?

So bad

You're the best friend, a man ever had

Tell me why, why

Why do you make me so mad?

So mad

Well, you're the best friend, a man ever had

[Verse]

Well, I wake up in the morning

I'm still dreaming 'bout you

I'll tell, you pretty baby, I'm blue

I wake up in the evening

I'm still screaming out over you

Over you

[Chorus]

Tell me why, why

Why do you treat me so bad?

So bad

You're the best friend, a man ever had

[Verse]

Well, I wake up in the morning

I'm still dreaming 'bout you

I'll tell, you pretty baby, I'm blue

I wake up in the evening

I'm still screaming out over you

Over you

[Chorus]

Tell me why, why

Why do you make me so sad?

So sad

You're the best friend, a man has ever had

[Verse]

Well, I wake up in the morning

I'm still dreaming about you

I'll tell, you pretty baby, I'm blue

I wake up in the evening

I'm still screaming out over you

Over you

[Chorus]

Tell me why, why

Why do you treat me so bad?

So bad

You're the best friend, a man ever had

You're the best friend, a man could ever have
